Fully used now, works on very small ticks ok. Also handy for picking them up when you see them crawling inside the tent. Easy to use, supplied info sheet is well detailed, after using the alcohol wipes up switched to hand cleaning alcohol gel. As it's styled like a pen it's easy to keep to hand or clipped onto straps. Last weekend at Skye, 1x on me, 14x on mrs, and 4x picked up and ejected from inner tent. Works well

Looks like it will be effective if ever needed.The hand written card with the comment "hope you never need the tic out" shows a company that has a nice personal touch and I'd be happy to shop here sgain
